Is Virtu Americas a lead market maker (LMM)?

Where do these figures come from?

From item E.2 of each ETF’s latest Form N-CEN, which names its APs and the dollars each created and redeemed. ETFIQ groups the rows by Virtu Americas’s CRD, SEC file number and LEI, never by the name as typed.

Method

Virtu Americas LLC is identified by CRD 149823, SEC file number 8-68193, LEI 549300RA02N3BNSWBV74. It is on the SEC’s list of active broker-dealers dated Oct 1, 2026 as VIRTU AMERICAS LLC. Funds filed its name 11 ways; every spelling is in dealers.json. Every row is one authorized participant (AP) listed in item E.2 of an ETF’s latest Form N-CEN, with the dollars of the fund’s shares it purchased from the fund (created) and redeemed in the fund’s reporting period, as filed. A fund’s period is its own fiscal year, or less where the filing says so, so a firm’s total adds periods that end on different days. Rows are grouped into firms by the identifiers each row carries: the CRD number first, the SEC file number and LEI where the CRD is missing or typed wrong, never by name. 71 of 75,056 rows carry a CRD their file number and LEI place on another firm, and are counted there.

The rest of the method

A firm’s name is its registration on the SEC’s list of active broker-dealers where it is on it. Spot crypto and commodity trusts and ETNs file no N-CEN and are not here.
